Place fully flashed and working drive into external - work?
Posted: Thu Mar 26, 2020 7:05 pm
Evening all
I have two fully working LibreDrive units in my (quite old) pc and I've recently snapped up an iMac from a closing down sale which is 2018 spec and WAY more powerful.
I use OSX every day so know my way around it - my question is whether I can take either (or both) of the perfectly working drives out of the old PC and pop them into a USB enclosure(s) and have them still work?
I will post a question separately in the mac forum too but here I am questioning if the hardware will retain its functionality when removed from the host PC.
Cheers
